2. Ten days at sea: the real story of the Aquarius

Euronews' Anelise Borges was the only television journalist aboard the migrant rescue ship Aquarius when it was at the centre of a diplomatic storm and became a symbol of changing attitudes in Europe towards asylum seekers.

She spent 10 days aboard the vessel, which had saved 630 migrants from the Mediterranean Sea.

When Italy's new populist coalition government refused to let the vessel dock, it sparked an international crisis and an excruciating wait to know who would let the migrants in.

8. Malta is a captured state, say sons of Daphne Caruana Galizia

Andrew and Matthew Caruana Galizia say the story behind their mother’s assassination is that of a small Mediterranean Island state that has been taken over by outside interests.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist and anti-corruption activist who was investigating Maltese government links to money laundering and tax evasion. She was killed in a car bomb close to her home last year.

Speaking to Sophie Claudet on Euronews’ Global Conversation, her sons say outside foreign interests have, in effect, taken control and are pulling the strings in the country.

10. Armistice centenary: why it's important to remember World War I

In the run-up to November's commemorations to mark a century since the end of WW1, we spoke to people across Europe to get a flavour of what the end of the conflict meant for them.

From first-hand memories of the final moments of the war to Europeans searching for ways to communicate the story of the conflict to the next generation, their testimonies pack a powerful and emotional punch.

11. Explained: the rise and rise of populism in Europe

We looked at the data behind a key trend in Europe: the rise of populism.

Looking at the vote share won by populist parties over the last decade we found Italy (before its election this year) was at the forefront of an EU-wide trend that has seen a huge swing to anti-establishment parties.

This year has seen the launch of The Cube, Euronews' social media newsdesk, which spends time verifying and sometimes debunking what is posted on Facebook, Twitter and other similar websites.

Earlier this month The Cube's Alex Morgan exposed a video sponsored by the Hungarian government about pro-EU MEP Guy Verhofstadt.

It accused Verhofstadt of being reckless and showed a clip of him saying that he supported "more migration" in the EU.

But Euronews proved that the clip was taken from a 2014 interview in which the MEP said: "We need migration but we need legal migration. For the moment, we have the opposite. We have illegal immigration and human trafficking."

Verhofstadt then wrote to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and demanded the video be removed from his platform.

14. Nine days in a truck: uncovering the human cost of Europe's delivery industry

Amid changes surrounding the regulation of the transport industry, most people have little awareness of what life as a lorry driver is really like.

Journalist Natalia Liubchenkova joined one such driver on the road for nine days to uncover the human price of having goods readily available in our local supermarkets.

The delivery drivers who are integral to this industry sleep in their vehicles and prepare meals next to them for days, weeks and months at a time. For long periods they see little except the road, lorry parks and the inside of their cab.
